Change the PS3 hotplug memory routine ps3_mm_add_memory() from
a core_initcall to a device_initcall.
core_initcall routines run before the powerpc topology_init()
startup routine, which is a subsys_initcall, resulting in
failure of ps3_mm_add_memory() when CONFIG_NUMA=y. When
ps3_mm_add_memory() fails the system will boot with just the
128 MiB of boot memory

Ben,
Please send upstream for 2.6.29, as this effects the current
Fedora 11 development kernel, and maybe other distros which
are based on 2.6.29.
